Exciting new technology for Pipeline Mapping

Many network owners have invested heavily in state-of-the-art GIS platforms but end up filling them with unreliable digital data, often converted at great cost from old analog maps. Whether due to stricter industry regulations or changing network risk guidelines, the pressure to improve the quality of network as-built data is increasing. Affordable and efficient technologies are required to meet this need.

Reduct focuses solely on doing just that. It has developed the DuctRunnerTM technology, an innovative modular mapping system. Today, a range of Pipeline Mapping Systems and Services are on offer that meet the market's demand for accurate and efficient pipeline mapping.

cool, thanks for the feedback. My application would need up to 60-100 miles at a time.

I assume you have connections with TDW or other. if not, you should.

Those pigs have larger battery and data capacity that might be helpful.

We do smart pigs often, but would like to find a reasonable way to add in GIS on a run.

Please go to our website to learn more about this technology. We also have a distributor in the US who is looking to take this technology into the Oil and Gas Industry. You can google DuctRunner or Reduct (company name). Good luck and thanks for the interest

If it can't be connected to a pig, it has little usage.

how short of corner can it turn?

It can be connected to a pig, but not in this form.This technology was originally designed to create accurate As-Builts. The system however can also provide information about pipeline alignment, bending radii, welds and weld offset. The greatest advantage of this system is that it can map up to 2.5 km (1.6 miles) of pipeline in one shot. For the Oil and Gas Industry we have other systems that can travel far greater distances.

We have units that can do 1 and 1.5 D bends.
